Porcelain
Is the decoration vibrant, clear, colorful, gentle, bold, subtle, and timeless?
These are the things to look for in beautiful porcelain. Whatever it is, it should be “all-the–way”. The plate or object should represent whatever that quality is with conviction. For this reason, everyone may like something different, but he or she will have a clear reaction to the statement made by the object. The object will still be appreciated today and also in 100 years.
To summarize our understanding of excellent porcelain it must represent these:
- Purity of body
- Pleasingly light and unusual of shape
- Brilliance of color and definitive style.
If you have not already, we hope you will develop a love for this art form and build a collection of your own.
